EDWATEC at ECOC 2024 – Bringing Optical Gain On-Chip
EDWATEC is proud to participate in ECOC 2024, taking place in Frankfurt from September 22–26.

EDWATEC is proud to participate in ECOC 2024, taking place in Frankfurt from September 22–26. Join us at booth F39, where we’re showcasing our latest innovations in integrated optical amplification and lasing. This year, we're unveiling live demonstrations of our Erbium-Doped Waveguide Amplifiers (EDWAs)—a technology poised to transform the way photonic systems are designed and deployed.
Unlike traditional discrete amplifiers, EDWAs bring optical gain directly on-chip, enabling seamless monolithic integration with Silicon Photonics platforms. Our solution combines compact form factors, low noise, and compatibility with foundry processes—addressing a critical bottleneck in the scalability of next-generation coherent transceivers, quantum communication systems, and integrated optical sensors.
The response so far has been remarkable, with interest from a broad range of companies across telecom, datacenter, aerospace, and emerging quantum markets. Whether you're a system architect exploring new design possibilities or a technology partner looking for integration-ready solutions, we invite you to see the technology in action and speak with our team.
To learn more, view live demos, or schedule a meeting during the event, don’t hesitate to reach out at info@edwatec.com. We look forward to connecting with you at ECOC 2024.
